Charlie Brown - Adoption Pending!
While every rescued dog has a story to tell, there are some that truly tug hard at our heartstrings. The extended family had been trying to reach Charlie Brown's owner and after a week's time with no success, they went to the house only to find that Charlie Brown's owner had passed away.
It's certainly a tragic situation, but Charlie stayed loyally with his master's body before the family put him out. Yes, you read that correctly - the family took Charlie Brown and put him out in the yard. If that wasn't cold-hearted enough, after a few days they locked him outside of the yard, on his own with no protection, shelter, food, or water. Kind neighbors took pity on CB and had animal control come and pick up this gentle soul.
Charlie went from being a beloved companion to being a homeless dog in a high kill shelter in AL. He was petrified at the shelter and would sit and shake in his kennel. We moved him as quickly as possible to our vet's office where CB is now in the care of the wonderful staff.
Charlie Brown is estimated to be about 2 years old. He is full grown and weighs about 55 lbs. He loves to run around and play. He would do well with a physically fenced yard or in a home where he would get nice walks. He walks pretty well on a leash and rides nicely in the car. CB keeps his kennel clean, a good sign that he is house-broken, and doesn't tear up his bedding or toys. This sweet fella is a bit nervous around large male dogs, but is fine with the females. Mostly, Charlie loves his humans and cannot wait to go home and do what he does best - LOVE UNCONDITIONALLY!!
Charlie Brown is micro-chipped, neutered, and up-to-date on vaccinations. He has been treated for heartworm and received a Proheart 6 injection so he will not need any additional heartworm preventative for 6 months. He will be headed north from AL in mid-to late August to be directly adopted.
If you are approved to adopt through SGRR, are home most of the day, and have a tender spot in your heart for the underdog, please contact Cheryl to be considered to adopt this wonderful fellow. If you are not yet approved, visit our website to fill out an application! This pup will not be available for long so be quick to get your inquiries in!!
Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical. When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to take on whatever comes with the dog. It is up to YOU to continue the rehabilitation we have begun. This is what it means to rescue.
